ok, i made an oversight. yes joo magnetro would definitely count. guys that are “dark horses” like you said definitely are better than randoms and i know that they are very good as well. DEFINITELY better than i’ll ever be too.
preppys played the game for a long time but i believe my evaluation of his team holds true. and that type of player is not as intricate in the execution department as complete unknowns that at least TRY to win with mag/storm.
i think you would take any of the guys you listed words over preppys as well too.
i distinctly remember preppy claiming that tron doing something 32 hits off her super instead of 42 or wahtevever was “game breaking for a tron player” back when (ithink) xbox1 version hit. lol yeah right. its a difference, but a minor one in comparison to the whole game. those were his exact words if i remember correct.
in truth that kind of thing is far from game breaking. some ASSIST CHARACTER super that happens once in a long ass while does less damage and you want to throw out a game? get real. and thats why i wouldnt listen to preppy anymore than a random (who btw still has a chance at being just as GOOD at the game or even better).
as for MY word regarding marvel, i have no idea if the port is good or not. the only thing im saying is imo i dont think preppys word is greater than his fame for his work in the community. and if you want to say that i dont have the chops to say that, you can just read what i said about his team. thats my argument right there and if you disagree fine, but i think ive stated my points fairly well. i think you, as an experienced marvel player, can see my point regarding his play.
there is definitely a frame rate issue. The port of the game, even offline, has more frame skipping going on with it for w\e reason. This fucks with the “randomness” of the game with some characters. With the additional frame rate skipping characters like chun li could be more “random” than originally allowed with her rh instant overhead unblockable. I guess the same could be said for ruby heart or jugg\bbhood team supers
some characters like cyke lost combos. cyke infinite became like a 1f-2f link or something retarded like that and that same thing affected magneto’s infinite because he could do addf.lk, .lk as a combo which isn’t possible on the DC version. Forgot exactly what it was
the corners were fucked in the ports too. The port allowed certain combos to gain the corner which weren’t possible on the DC version iirc
the most annoying feature aside from the frame rate drop was the way the game loaded the fucking sprites. The game wouldn’t load the first SJ, the first dash or the first assist call UNTIL you called them first. So whenever you did any of those things for the first time, the game would always skip. Now in mvc2, 99% of the game is played off the start with assists and the game would just pause for a split second then do its job making it ever so random. Not only did you have the independent amounts of frame skip per stage which was also on DC, you also had the x360 additional frame skip for the port THEN, the skipping going on when the game loads the spirtes for the time during the most crucial part of the fight. Lastly, you had the frame skipping going on due to the net play which no game can hide
really foggy on the ports, been playing mvc3 the last 8 months so what I’m saying might not be completely true. Lots of annoying things about the ports but still rather accurate, far from ideal though. I don’t think many of us cared about it because crack was online with pretty decent net code. Had some real clean connections on there
No, sorry, I don’t want new Capcom nor new SNK having a hand at a new CvS3. Just CvS2 Online Edition would be good enough. Anything Capcom or SNK has made in the past couple of years have been steaming piles of shit compared to everything else they’ve made because they just don’t give a shit anymore and outsource it to some shitty company that has never made a good game in their life (Okay, I’ll give you Rumble Fish 2)
It may be rehashed, but the balance decisions were still made by SNKP developers and the games did get balanced for the better rather than for the worse. They’re not giving their shit to Dimps or Eighting and then sending a few internal devs to oversee everything. So while the other parts of their games’ interfaces are ugh, SNKP still makes proper balancing decisions than Capcom has been doing for the SSFIV series.
2012: SF X TK, six months later Super SF X TK and a patch that adds 4 new characters to UMVC3. Then Darkstalkers HD and/or new 3D game announced late in the year.
2013: CVS2 on PSN/XBLA than new Darkstalkers.
2014: Street Fighter V is announced for late 2014 or early 2015. Alpha 3 Upper or a another remix of Alpha 3 is out on XBLA/PSN.
Updated first post/page with recent CvS3/2 coverage
Yet another journalistic request for Capcom vs SNK 3 with Capcom’s response:
"Okay, last question. SNK vs. Capcom 3. When’s it happening?
I hear requests for that all the time. In fact literally, every day on Twitter, literally several times a day, so I know it’s something on the fan’s minds.
Honestly, from my point of view, but the time we got to Capcom vs. SNK 2, they did pretty much everything they could do with that game That’s a really well polished game. I don’t think that we could top it. I think if we were to do a three, we would have to do something different and take it in a new direction because I wouldn’t want to compete with two since it was so darn good.
But a lot has changed with SNK side as well. It’s a different company now than it was then. We had a lot of connections back then, we were really friendly with one another. But frankly, I don’t know a lot of people there right now.
Things have changed so much, so there could be a bit of a hurdle getting something down there, just making these business connections again first. But you know, who knows. I can’t say one way or another whether something like that can be done.
But I can say that it would probably be different, and it would start with a lot of negotiations and just getting to know these guys again because it’s a lot of people we’re not familiar with"
